I enjoyed the Tony Awards last night. Neil Patrick Harris is a gift to humanity, and they skipped the boring awards in the telecast. Also, the musical numbers were actually good (except for the one from "Spiderman"). I'm glad "The Book of Mormon" won Best Musical, though at the last minute, I was sort of rooting for "The Scottsboro Boys," since

Well, if you think "therapy" and "cuddling" are doable...I'm betting Jim has his fair share of scars, physical and emotional. And you know Bones would be in manly vapors over a GSW, because it's just so damn primitive, jeez, why don't we just throw rocks at each other? But that sticks you with "unwanted transformation," which, hm...
(Personally, if I had this card, I'd go for a diagonal from "minor illness" to "isolation," but I am a wimp.)
I don't know about therapy. All I know from therapy is movies and television, so I'm not sure I could make it believable. But ... maybe. Or - hell, therapy could mean just about anything, right? There's therapeutic massage. Cuddling a cat is therapeutic. Nobody said it has to be clinical.
What's a GSW?
Hmm, I could do the diagonal and make cuddling my wild card. Or ALL the comfort could be cuddling and I could make the middle one something else.
I could go diagonal from isolation to minor illness. That would be the safe path! Although then I wouldn't get to de-age Scotty and have Chekov babysit him. :)
For "slaves" I could do something about sexual slavery and Orions.
Hee. Whereas I couldn't do kink_bingo. The thought of writing all those sex scenes... *wibbles*
I know about therapy animals. That's an interesting idea. Part of the reason I don't write much Pike is because, like you say, we have no idea what sort of injuries he sustained and I don't have much in the way of medical knowledge. I figured the award ceremony takes place not that long after they save the Earth, since Jim's cuts are healed but his face still appears to be a little bruised. But perhaps a scene between him and Winona would be interesting. There could be some mutual comforting going on.
I've been through physical therapy myself (I hurt some muscles in my lower back a few years ago) and couple possibly incorporate my experiences into a story.
Or maybe the therapy is the scary/hurt thing for the protagonist, and he or she comes to realize that oh, this is going to help me and it isn't so bad. Hmmm...

GSW = gunshot wound. I watch too much ER.

I wonder if heroic self-sacrifice could count as a suicide attempt?
Hmm, maybe the bottom line? Though I'm not sure how I feel about slaves. Forced soulbonding could be fun.

I have the kernel of an idea for isolation.
